80 é um bom número para parar.

Já noutras ocasiões as Miss Tapes foram suspensas, mas desta vez um novo motivo subjaz. Sinto, pela primeira vez, pouco entusiasmo em me lançar em novas edições destas cassetes imaginárias. Será um entusiasmo talvez proporcional àquele que tem sido despertado na audiência. Acredito que uns quantos indefectíveis ainda aqui venham à espera de algo, mas já há algum tempo que existe um silêncio e uma quietude maiores.

Não me interpretem mal: continuaria a gravar Miss Tapes nem que houvesse apenas um único ouvinte. Mas sem ânimo não valeria a pena.
E é com esse pensamento que as Miss Tapes hão-de voltar numa outra vida, talvez com outro nome, ou talvez não. Talvez com os sons de sempre, talvez com os sons que nunca aqui passaram. Não sei dizer.

Este número 80 é breve, como sinceramente espero que seja o tempo que durará até voltar o entusiasmo e a musica prosssiga o seu caminho.

Até lá, procurem-me aqui.

Are you ready to be?

2009-01-30T08:56:00.002+08:00

"looking like a born again
living like a heretic
listening to arthur lee records
making all your friends feel so guilty
about their cynicism
and the rest of their generation
not even the government are gonna stop you now
but are you ready to be heartbroken?
are you ready to be heartbroken?
pumped up full of vitamins
on account of all the seriousness
you say you're so happy now
you can hardly stand
lean over on the bookcase
if you really want to get straight
read norman mailer
or get a new tailor
are you ready to be heartbroken?"

Lloyd Cole, "Are you ready to be heartbroken"

No more sad songs

High Fidelity

2009-01-22T22:49:00.003+08:00

"What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?

The unhappiest people I know, romantically speaking, are the ones who like pop music the most; and I don't know whether pop music has caused this unhappiness, but I do know that they've been listening to the sad songs longer than they've been living the unhappy lives."

Breve história do tempo

2009-01-08T15:57:00.004+08:00

"Time is the stuff of music: music manipulates our experience of time; it plays with the rhythm of experience; it stretches and complicates our relationship to the passing of time. If the world of physics is a space-time continuum, music is a pitch-time continuum. We use spatial metaphors to express our experience of frequency - notes are higher and lower, something expressed formally in staff notation, and deeply inscribed in our experience of music as performers and listeners. A large interval between two notes is a gulf to be stretched over. The quintessential musical form, melody, as it moves up and down in pitch space, over time, is a sort of quasi-miraculous bridging of the gap between the abandoned past, the ungraspable present and the as-yet-to-be-achieved, utterly unreal future. We grasp it and, as we do so, time is attended to and made palpable and affective."

Antes de começar a dar-vos música e publicar a primeira Miss Tape de 2009, gostava de agradecer a todos os que por aqui passam e a todos os que têm a paciência de descarregar os ficheiros que crio com músicas dos outros. Agradecer ainda a todos quantos dão a conhecer este blogue a outras pessoas, alargando a audiência sem a qual nada disto faria sentido. O meu sincero obrigado.
